Yesterday car dealers added to concerns about the state of the U.S. auto industry and how tough any downturn might be if its six-year recovery has ended.

German cars are always on the top of world sales. However U.S. sales of BMW brand vehicles decreased 6.4 percent in May for a total of 29,017 compared to 31,003 vehicles sold in May, 2015. President and CEO, BMW of North America, Ludwig Willisch, said the shorter number of selling days in May no doubt affected the month totals, but he also mentioned the ongoing transition to X models among the possible solutions. The BMW X1 grows more popular each month with its siblings X3 and X6 giving it strong support. The X5 was limited only by availability but that will continue impr...
If you own one of the 2010-2016 VT750 Shadow motorcycles, including the 2012-2014 VT750CA, VT750C2 and VT750C2F; 2011-2016 VT750C; 2013-2016 VT750CS; 2010-2016 VT750C2B; and 2013-2014 VT750C2S, then you should know that these models have been recalled by Honda.
